Product Description
Cristec YPower+ Smart Battery Charger - YPower Improved!
With all of the reliability of the original YPower and added options now standard, the YPower+ range is an impressive step forward in the marine AC to DC charger product line. The YPower+ line is still the highest-rated fanless charger available.
The general rule-of-thumb is to size the charger based on your main battery bank size. The charger should be sized so that its maximum amperage is approximately 10% of the total Amp/Hour capacity of the battery bank being charged. So, as an example, a 25A charger would be the correct selection for a bank between 200 and 300 Amp/Hours in capacity.
YPower+ Innovations:
- Enables installation in the living areas, engine room, or confined spaces
- External AC and DC connectors supplied, only a screwdriver is required
- Automatic Refresh to prevent sulfation/electrolyte stratification, and ‘re-Boost’ if battery demand needs it
- AGM, Gel, Vented Wet Cells, Calcium Lead, Spiral Lead, Lithium Ion Iron Phosphate, etc.
- Independent outputs, each with full current output and built-in ‘no voltage drop’ isolator - (3) on 20A/30A, (4) on 40/60A models
- Standard Bluetooth LE board to monitor all connected banks - now 4 independent outputs
- CANBus interface for networking multiple units and Scheiber Multibloc network connectivity
It is completely automatic and autonomous with 5 advanced charging steps - Boost (Bulk), Absorption, Float, Automatic Refresh (de-sulfate/de-stratification) and Reboost.
Adaptive Charging: User-Selectable for Lead-Acid, Gel, VRLA, Calcium, Lithium/LiFePO4 (or other custom chemistries - by factory software setting)
Stackable and scalable. Multiple units can be combined to increase output. Great for current-hungry Lithium systems.
Completely silent. No cooling fans, buzzing, etc (25A & 40A models)
Auto-ranging International power compatibility. 90VAC to 265VAC (single phase 50/60Hz) input, 5 -stage 12V battery charging profile output
Can function as an independent AC-DC power supply - can provide full power without any batteries connected, or boost battery power when needed
Optional temperature probe to vary charging parameters based on battery compartment temperature. We highly recommend it. It will help preserve your batteries, and extend their life. (click the link or see the related product pages below)
Optional remote-mount color touchscreen display, provides data on charging, current, stage, voltage (AC/DC), frequency (AC), etc.
